110 Notes on Implements of the Bronze Age found in Wiltshire. 



From Eushall Down, a casual find, comes a remarkable Pin 

 (No. 268), 6 Jin. long, the head like a round flat tray l|^in. in 

 diameter, with a raised rim surrounding sixteen small cones with 

 blunt tops set on the flat tray. Half-way down the stem is the 

 rare feature of a loop, broken (Plate IV., Fig. 6). I^o other Pin 

 with a head quite like this seems to be known, though Pins with 

 loops on their stems have been found. There is, however, in the 

 British Museum (No. 269) another Pin from " South Wilts," with 

 a similar circular tray-like head, but without the cones, and with 

 a baluster stem without the loop. 



Three Pins with flat round plain heads (Nos. 264 — 266), the 

 longest about 6in., the others shorter, also from " South Wilts," 

 are in the British Museum, and another with a round flat head 

 and a knob on the stem, was found in a barrow at Scratchbury 

 (No. 267). A Pin with a plain round knob head, about 2in. long, 

 from "South Wilts" (No. 270), is in the British Museum.

A very curious Pin, 6 Jin. long (No. 271), with a head formed of 

 two circular rings, from each of which a smaller ring hangs, had 

 apparently been enclosed in a wooden sheath lined with cloth, 

 and was not therefore a hair pin. It was found with a cremated 

 interment in a barrow near Sidbury Hill. No other example is 

 known. 



There is also in the Stourhead Collection, from some unknown 

 locality, very probably in Wiltshire, a Pin with the head widening

out into a large flattened ring (No. 272). It is 5|in. in length. A
